The App Group Level Data Point Usage by Category table enables you to see data point counts for each category of data points.

You can use this table to identify the categories of data points that are driving data point consumption for the app group.

The App Group Level Data Point Usage over Time table enables you to see how that app group’s data point usage has changed throughout your billing cycle.

The App Level Stats table enables you to see data point usage for each of the apps in your app group. You can use this table to identify which apps are driving data point consumption for the app group.

Most used events and attributes by app

The Most Used Events and Attributes By App page is a useful tool to understand the drivers of your attribute and custom event data point consumption. For each app, you can find an estimated count of each specific custom attribute, profile attribute, and custom event for the selected time period as well as the percentage of that app’s attribute and event updates that were driven by that attribute or event.

Data breakdowns like these can help customers understand what specific data points are taking up large percentages of your allotment. We recommend customers monitor this information from time to time to make sure they aren’t spending data points in accidental and unnecessary ways.
